Tragic, shocking, sensational! Even sluggish!
Chloe entered the world of Sin City completely, and the darkness that penetrated her marrow left her breathless. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info She knew that Muffrey was not a good stubble, his hands were already bloody, and he was also a wanted criminal, to be precise, he was also a criminal, and he was also a part of Sin City.
Chloe, however, felt sorry for Muffle. Not because of his heroic feat of avenging his lover's thousands of miles, but because in the shadow of Sin City, he was forced to embark on the path of crime and fight violence with violence. When a society completely loses order, then everyone will face the struggle on the edge of survival, which is also the most terrible part of war, but the "Sin City" has shaped a city that is more terrible, bloodier, and colder than war. This is the reason why Chloe felt the shock of her soul.
Lance once again broke people's fixed thinking, once again presented the depth of art with rich lens language, and once again shaped the character with sharp but delicate details.
From the full and mellow true tones of "City of God", to the use of light that wanders between truth and falsehood in "Murder with a Knife", to the thick ink that breaks through the shackles of "Sin City", step by step, each time bolder and bolder, Chloe suddenly realized that these three films are actually one movie.
When she realized this, Chloe couldn't help but turn her head, subconsciously trying to find something, and then she saw Emerson's excited eyes, neither of them spoke, but the look in their eyes was so similar, Chloe knew that she was not the only one who had such thoughts.
Emerson was shocked, excited, excited. After fifty minutes of viewing, his emotions were saturated, his mind was stirring up countless thoughts, and he needed a little time to cool down - but the movie wasn't over yet. However, one thing he can confirm is that Sin City will go down in history, there is no doubt about it.
Looking at the muffle who was sent to the electric chair and the bishop with his hands covered in blood, Emerson couldn't help but think of the recent "church/sexual/child abuse" news incident that caused a sensation around the world.
Under the protection of the Church, the terrible sin spreads, and the filthy hands reach out to the young and ignorant children, and it is hard to imagine how the traumatized children will grow up to get rid of these shadows. According to preliminary statistics from the Boston Globe, most of the children chose suicide or sinking, and those who did grow up called themselves "survivors." All of this is happening in the church that shines on believers in the name of God, filthy, shameful, horrible, shocking.
What is even more terrifying is that the bishop had known all this fifty years ago, and if it had not been for his cover-up, if it had not been for his acquiescence, if it had not been for his connivance, things would not have come to this point.
Ironically, in Sin City, Kevin tricks prostitutes into their farms one by one, tortures them to death, and then eats and skins every corpse, not just flesh, but bones, and even souls. And the bishop not only acquiesced in all this, but also promoted it with his own hands.
How ridiculous, how ridiculous, and how sad. The so-called "hand of God" has become an executioner that strangles the soul.
If you think about it a little closer, why did things get worse in half a century, and no one ever found out? It's not just one or two cases, it's hundreds of victims, all over the world, and no one has ever found out? Or was it never reported by the news media?
Why the Boston Globe? Why today, half a century later? Why is it that the news has been reported before, but no one has ever really paid attention to it?
Behind that disgusting evil lies half a century of indifference and neglect in society! But it's a terrible reality so cruel that even the angels weep for it! But it is an endless hell without heaven, sunshine, and hope! The silence and tolerance of the whole society, the silence and indifference of the news media, all this has become a breeding ground for evil, and even promoted the continuation of evil with his own hands.
All this is precisely the core topic that Lance's previous three films are discussing!
From "City of God" to "Murder by the Sword" to "City of Sin", Lance has always explored one question: where will society's indifference and callousness ultimately go?
When the whole society begins to become cold and detached, turning a blind eye to the evils around them, or even conniving. When they became victims of crime, they found that they had no way to turn for help -- the government's law enforcement agencies had become the backyard of lawbreakers, the news media of the uncrowned king had gone to the point of no return with profit first and entertainment to death, and even the religious beliefs of the soul had become a hell where crime breeds...... At the end of the corner, either break out or die.
Now the big screen is playing out his answer, a virtual city, a world that relies on reality but projects illusory, a lawless and crime-ridden land - Sin City was born.
Not only the story, not only the characters, but even the color and light have become Lance's weapons, which seem to be completely different, but they are the same. Lance sketches out a grand blueprint through three works, and "Welcome to Your Sin City" re-establishes the cycle, from reality to illusion and from fantasy back to reality.
It turns out that from the beginning of the "City of God", this game of chess has already begun to be laid out!
If it weren't for the fact that he was watching the movie, Emerson would have wanted to give him a standing ovation. That shiver that penetrated deep into his soul made him want nothing more than screaming, screaming, venting all the excitement and excitement, "Lance is a genius, Lance is a genius!" But Emerson didn't, for the audience in the screening room had become so impatient that they began to scream uncontrollably, and the cries of excitement and fear rang out intermittently and uncontrollably, making the theater part of Sin City.
A throwing knife spun and severed Jackie's left hand - starting at the wrist, the whole hand holding the pistol was cut off like a toy. And Meiling, who is dressed in a Chinese/Chinese style embroidered cloak, shows the lightness and neatness in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", which is definitely the bloodiest scene since the beginning of the movie.
You can even hear someone retching at the scene.
Jackie picked up his severed hand in a hurry, then bit off his fingers with his teeth and held the pistol in his right hand again, such a dark humorous picture made the psychological unhappiness reach the extreme; At the end of the picture, Meiling cut Jackie in half with a sword, like a paper man, but no drop of blood seeped out, and the two bodies slowly fell to the sides, and then revealed Meiling's cold and arrogant face, but the shock effect increased exponentially.
Someone really started vomiting at the scene, but the amazing thing is that no one left the scene.
This caused a small commotion, and many people turned their heads and whispered, but it was only for a moment, because then the attention was turned to the big screen again, and no one wanted to miss the movie - just like someone wouldn't want to leave even if they vomited.
Emerson didn't like the fourth story because it was too old-fashioned, more like an 80s crime movie, lacking the sharpness and wit of the first three stories, and the core ideas that Lance had injected into the film, as if it were outside the whole creative story.
Dee White was a former criminal, and after plastic surgery, he became the boyfriend of Shirley, a bartender, and helped her teach her a lesson to her pestering ex-boyfriend, the violent Jackie. However, Dee White eventually realizes that something is wrong, and he follows Jackie to the old town, where a gang of prostitutes and girls is ruled by a gang of prostitutes, where Jackie is killed by the prostitutes. Later, Dewight discovers that Jackie is a police officer, and his death has broken the agreement between the prostitutes and the police. So, De White had to help them cover up the crime and protect them.
Even when Lance "brings Jackie back from the dead" and watches Deewight and Jackie, who is split in half, sitting in the car and talking, the bizarre images are stunning, absurd and surreal. But Emerson still didn't like the story, it was so conventional, it even seemed to be out of place with the whole movie.
But soon, Emerson changed his mind.
The prostitutes set a trap and gathered all the policemen together, as well as the mole within the prostitute, and then they condescendingly pulled out their submachine guns and started shooting. Such a bloody and violent picture presents some poetry in black and white slow motion, especially the gunfire in the torrential rain, which dispelled the thick darkness little by little, and the collision between evil and evil was sublimated in the lightning and thunder.
The dark clouds in the sky were dyed red, not the color of the burning clouds, but the red dyed of blood, rich and flamboyant, wanton and majestic.
This makes Emerson almost want to applaud, ironic and humorous, sharp and delicate, every character is so vivid, evil and more evil, crazy and more crazy; Every picture is so wonderful, absurd and bizarre, weird and bold. Everything makes the bloody violence of the whole movie completely out of control.
This is Sin City, the real Sin City! A city watered with blood, a land soaked in sin, a world without order, without norms, without justice! When society begins to ignore, when society begins to be silent, when society begins to tolerate...... Sin City was born! (To be continued.) )
